Natura Issues New Pet Food, Treat Recall

Listen to this article

Natura voluntarily recalled all Innova, California Natural, EVO, Healthwise, Mother Nature and Karma branded dry pet food and biscuit, bar and treat products with expiration dates prior to June 10, 2014.

“We made this decision in part due to a single positive Salmonella test by the FDA on product manufactured April 3,” the company said in a statement posted on their website. “Normally, this would have resulted in retrieval of product manufactured over just a few days. However, we are taking the additional precautionary measure to recall all products in the marketplace. Our first priority is the wellbeing of the pets we serve.”

Natura issued its first recall in the company’s 21-year history in March, and then expanded that recall a few weeks later.

“Our decision allows us to ensure that all products available in the marketplace were produced after June 10, the date when we implemented additional finished product testing procedures with the guidance of industry experts,” the statement continued.
